Hello TSLers, the Sentinel is BACK after a hiatus last week. Saturday the sun was shining and the weather could not have been better. It is so early in the season, so it is difficult to get a good gauge on who’s truly the contenders, and who’s the pretenders, but it is fun to imagine! Teams that have started off hot must believe this is their year, while those that aren’t may be wondering why they are in the division they are in. Nonetheless, let check out the action!
Breakfast Club
The Dirty Dozen 48, Blach-Ur-Anus 39
The first BC game of the year was a high-scoring affair! Garrett Beesing was back there throwing for BUA and he found instant success! It appeared to be the Garrett and Langley show as the two connected time after time moving the ball down the field, making people wonder what those two did together in the offseason. Dirty Dozen was led by Micah at QB, who moved the ball at will. Defense was purely optional, and Micah took advantage. He throws a beautiful deep ball, and likes taking risks, which we can all appreciate! In the end, DD made enough plays and utilized their girls for scores and took home the win.
D1
Sticky Bandits 37, Frodo Swaggins 28
There was quite a height disparity here and Frodo took advantage early, as Garrett threw a beauty of a jump ball to Blake Fisher for the early score. Katie Swanson also joined the action, throwing the ball up to CJ Coatsworth, who used his height to high-point the ball over his defender. Despite playing the entire game with three girls, Sticky was able to carve up the Frodo defense, as Mike Thomas played strategic ball and found his open receivers. Brandy Clarke continued to be a beast on both sides of the ball, notching a TD on offense and a well-timed pick on defense!
D2
Can’t Touch This 19, Practice Squad 6
CTT is adapting well to D2, and continues to make a case to be the favorite as Ryan and his crew continue to build on the success they have had. Known for his electric arm, Ryan found his open receivers down the field, but the team had a case of the drops multiple times in the endzone on a few occasions. PS was down to a sub QB with B being MIA, and while the defense held tough all game, the offense just couldn’t get it going until the end.
D3
Vaspian 24, Let’s get Reccked 16
This was a very fun back-and-forth game, with both defense making big time plays. LGR didn’t have Alex back at QB, but who they had was rock solid, and delivered some tight passes all game long and Dave Baker was all over the field. With Vaspian Driving, Baker picked off Brian O and returned it. Nina K ran behind him and took the pitch to walk in for a girl score. Vaspian battled back though, as Drew Colisimo notched a big pick of his own. With the game on the line, Brian o found his guy on a deep ball over Baker that ultimately was the decider. Heck of a game!
D4
Travis Henry’s Kids 38, Father Baker 26
Father Baker is another iteration of the all-star girls teams, and they have talent! With it being week one for them, it took some time to work out the kinks but as the game went on, they got stronger. Baker was smart and decisive and kept taking advantage of the crossers THK gave them. THK was without Pistol Pete, but it looks like they added Money Mike Burke to the squad, talk about an addition! Langley threw a couple picks (shocker) but stayed poised and made enough plays. At the end leading by 2, THK put Jenna B at QB and she found tall Aaron for 8 points. QB controversy anyone?
D5
Gucci 46, Goatsack 32
Gucci continues their revenge tour in smoking fashion, as Kelly Kane has that look in her eye that she is ready to destroy D5. Gucci moved the ball at will, and had open receivers all day. This game was a one-two score game the whole way, and with Gucci driving, Kelly threw a pretty ill-timed interception. Goatsack made a change at qb towards the end and it seemed to work as they moved the ball well! In the end, Big Chris Wolcott and Kelly were too much for them and the dominance continues.
D6
Just get open 52, BTPU 8
Just get open looks like a new team for the league, but they certainly are NOT a new team playing together! I will have to learn their names after seeing the dominance they put out there, but they made this game look easy, moving the ball at will and stifling BTPU. BTPU is a team Alex D brought in and while they are still learning the ropes, I am sure some wins will be coming at some point. Not too much to say, this looked like a mismatch from the opening snap.
That is it for this week, I promise the Sentinel will cover more next week!
